Every chapter in this book begins from the same place: the dog in front of you, their body, their signals, their experience of the world. Not the method. Not the tool. Not the tradition you were trained in or the certification on your wall. The dog first, always.

As society evolves in its understanding of animal welfare and the responsibilities inherent in caring for dogs, the need for ethical frameworks in dog training becomes crucial. Beyond Behaviour critically examines various training methodologies through the lens of moral philosophy, exploring questions of autonomy, consent, and the psychological wellbeing of dogs in their role as our âpet.â

Delving into the complex interplay between ethical principles, moral questions of control and power, and the practicalities of training our canine companions, behaviour consultant Erin Jones draws on interdisciplinary perspectives from philosophy, psychology, and animal behaviour science.

Whether you be a trainer, behaviour consultant, veterinarian, canine caregiver or curious dog guardian, Beyond Behaviour will help you navigate ethical challenges to create a just relationship where dogs can thrive. This isnât just another dog training book. It is a gateway to more compassionate, effective, and ethically sound approaches to dog training in contemporary practice.
